Palmy The Palm Tree

Palmy is a palm tree. Bob, Larry, and their passengers were stranded. Palmy lives on a small island in the middle of the ocean.

Later in the story, after everyone forgives Larry for crashing the boat, they think they hear a tree speaking again, only this time they were right. A palm tree named Palmy comes up to them and congratulates them on forgiving each other, then sings The Forgiveness Song. The coconuts hanging from him sang along.

Carrot Guards

The Carrot Guards first appear when they were told to seize Rack, Shack and Benny and throw them in the furnace. However, before they fall into the furnace fire, Laura Carrot rescues them. Two of the guards pursue them on flying cars into the factory vents. One of the guards crash into a wall and falls into a vat of chocolate. The second guard goes through the wrong vent and also falls in a vat of chocolate.

Fun Facts

Despite other carrots in the early episodes including Dad Carrot and Scooter Carrot, the Carrot Guards' top part of their heads (which is split by a line between like with the rest of their bodies) is cut off by their police caps, hence hiding their eyes.

Voice Actors

Fun Facts

According to Phil, he was solely created was because his name rhymes with "naughty".

Grim Tickler

Whenever someone has to be sent to the Island of Perpetual Tickling, a long thin veggie that wears a brown robe with a long feather comes out and tickles the punished victims to the island endlessly. He doesn't speak at all, and eerie organ-like music plays whenever he shows up.

He is only seen in Esther.

Fun Facts

The name was coined by Mike Nawrocki in the episode commentary.

On a similar note, Phil stated that a child of a close friend of his called it "Bad Bird".

In the concept art, the Grim Tickler was going to have glove-like hands, similar to what the Snoodles have later.

Grim Tickler's Concept Art

If you look closely, you can see he only has a nose and no eyes. Meaning the character is eyeless.

Penelope and Mabel

Penelope and Mabel are both minor and recurring female characters that appeared in VeggieTales. In their debut, they were waiting for husbands to come back home from pillaging the other night. The two later appeared in Jonah when they spotted the prophet by the docks, and wonder what's the new message from God.

Penelope is a yellow pear with a green nose, and speaks in a British accent. Mabel is an asparagus, and speaks with a Cockney accent.

Fun Facts

Mabel's model is somewhat based on Lovey. Originally during the first episode, her model was based on Lisa Asparagus.

In later episodes, Penelope gained an American accent, possibly because her original actress left the show.

Though like Charlie Pincher, she probably switches accent for whatever role she plays.

The Captain of S. S. Minnow

After God told Maewyn that it's time for him to leave Ireland, Maewyn spotted a dock and talked to the Captain there if he can have a lift. The Captain says he can, and the whole crew went to French. They were suppose to head to the nearest town, but there directions were a bit off, and got lost and ran out of supplies. The Captain asks Maewyn if he can for some food, which they later did when one of the sailors spotted some pigs. The Captain and his crew later thanked Maewyn and God for the food. They eventually got to the next town afterwards.

Appearances

Marching Band Members

After Gideon's final warriors were chosen by God, they have to dress up as Marching Band Members to scare the Midianite camps with their horns, drums, and flashlights. Percy Pea is one of these warriors.

Milano, Espresso, and Dorito

Milano, Espresso, and Dorito are Gelato's brothers. They originally left to go to the Island of Boyardee, until a whale swallowed them. They were soon reunited when the whale swallowed Gelato and they soon escape the belly of the beast.
